<br />~II ~I~'I~~I~~~~~~II <br />Colorado Mined Land <br />Reclamation Division <br />Room 423 - 1313 Sherman Street <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />APR 2 01951 <br />Gentlemen: <br />MINED LAND RECLAMATION~:COA1; <br />We wish to take this means to object to the granting ci6~1n~++~k~1y~ilrlingCES_ <br />lease permits to Grand Coal Company in our area. <br />~POB 6913509 <br />April 17, 1981 <br />RECEIVED <br />As we do not know a great deal about what further development will bring and <br />we already have an air-shaft fan that makes the San Diego Freeway in Calif- <br />ornia sound like soft waves of an ocean, we feel an objection is in order. <br />We have repeatedly asked the personnel at the coal mine to please so some- <br />thing about the fan noise on the air-shaft, starting from when it was put <br />in up to date. The persons we have talked to are Mr. Paul Moore, Mr. Merlin <br />Fish and Mr. Rick Isom, we understand that Mr. Isom is no long with the company. <br />The first response we received from the mining company was that it was so late <br />in the fall and they could not do anything until it thawed out some due to the <br />snow and etc. Then in the spring is excuse was "there is so much mud, we will <br />have to get to it as soon as it dries up this summer." Then in late summer <br />of 1980 Mr. Paul Moore was in the Cedaredge Town Hall and made the comment to <br />my wife (Mary Lou Stein), "If your husband worked there you wouldn't be so apt <br />to complain about the noise." Whether I work for the mine or not has nothing <br />to do with a noise that wakes you out of a sound sleep or one that keeps you <br />awake all hours of the night. We. have had to resort to keeping the windows <br />closed in the summer, which is pretty sad when you have moved a thousand miles <br />to have the peace and quiet of a beautiful valley like Colby. <br />You can send an inspector almost anytime of the night or day to hear our "ROAR", <br />night would be best due to the quietness of the night air. During the winter <br />with the windows closed and our furnace going, which is a coal furnace with an <br />automatic stoker and blower, you can still hear the ''ROAR" from the fan on the <br />air-shaft. <br />We understand that there are a lot of things we have to put up with in order not <br />to stand in the way of progress ;.trespassing by mine employees (surface rights <br />to our property belong to us), fencing torn down to suit the mine (allowing our <br />horses to run fee) without any notice to us, rough dirt roads, extreme dust from <br />these dirt roads, heavy traffic, di'struction and disregard for irrigation ditches <br />and etc. But we just do not want to have to listen to anymore of these fans <br />that go on ai'r-shafts for mines, It would stand to reason that more of these <br />would have to go i'n~ i:f further leases are granted to Grand Mesa Coal Company <br />We moved to Colby ten (10) years ago, the mine was i'n operation then, but there <br />was not any noise except for 6lasti:ng every now and then, it was not done at <br />night to disturb our sleep, <br />Your consideration of this objection is appreciated. /~~ ~ ~ o <br />Sincerely, '~~'~~~~ `'' ~"" ~ <br />cc: State Engineer t~y~~ s~ ~^-~ <br />Charles E Mary Lou Stein <br />1918 - 2075 Drive <br />Cedaredge, Lolorado 81413 <br />April 7, 1981 <br />CERTIFIED MAIL <br />
